Women’s Hockey: Badgers complete two shutouts, sweep Penn State to open home schedule

This weekend, the Wisconsin Badgers (4-0-0) took on the Penn State Nittany Lions (0-2-2) at LaBahn Arena.

They thumped them.

Friday’s game, the first of the series, saw the Badgers take down the Lions by a score of 7–0. In the first period, Wisconsin unleashed a flurry of goals to give themselves a substantial lead right at the onset of the matchup.

Junior forward Brette Pettet led the Badgers’ scoring efforts in the first period with two goals scored at the 5- and 16-minute marks. Also contributing to the first period frenzy was another key player, junior forward Maddie Posick.
